November 6, 2009 By Rhino Wino

As the 2009 Major League Baseball season finished this week with the New York Yankees winning their 27th championship, you would think it would not be easy to write a blog post that includes baseball with the subject of wine. After all baseball is known for being a beer and nachos kind of game but there is a connection that not all wine enthusiast are aware of.
The long time manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Tommy Lasorda, after retiring from his first passion wanted to make his impression on his other passion of wine. Two years ago the soon to be Hall of Famer put together his next great team, this time some top wine makers from Italy. Losorda wines are made with some of the finest grapes such as Sangiovese and made in Tuscany these wines are growing in popularity not because of the famous namesake but because they truly taste great.

As the hoiday season approaches and you are looking for personalized wine gifts to get someone who also loves baseball a bottle of Lasorda wine may be just the perfect gift. These wines are ready now to be consumed but are reported to cellar very well for future use.
